Alright guys, so I just found out I was admitted at USC. So far no word on any scholarships so I assume they are not offering me anything. Is it worth it to pay sticker at USC or should I go with my original choice which was to attend Notre Dame at 25k per year? I'd like to do big law and I'm open to LA, Chicago, or NYC.

I know I mentioned this before, but you should really consider sitting out and reapplying next cycle. A URM (AA right?) with a 3.8/164 should have better options, or these same options with more money. I really think you underperformed and applying late killed your cycle.
